Visual Investigation Sheet
VISUAL INVESTIGATION:
1: Looking….
• Describe what you see – who, what, where, when, how composed?
• Describe how it is presented – scale, size, current placement.
• What light is shown?
• What colours are used?
• What textures and patterns?
2: Knowing…
• Using your own experience – what does it make you think of?
• What connections can you make between the work and your previous knowledge gained?
• What type of media is used – paint or drawing; marble or bronze; collage or photographic etc ?
PHYSICAL INVESTIGATION:
1: Researching…
• What is the title?
• Who made it?
• When?
• What for?
• Where for?
CONCLUDING….
Having produced all this information – what do you think the meaning of the work is? Why? What does this tell you about the world in which the work was made?
